Hi, I am a little confused on dates for non-o retirement visa. I entered Thailand on August 1st with a 60 day tourist visa, with last date of September 29. I now have house rental and bank account, and expect to have 800,000 in bank by August 16th. As money needs to be in bank for 2 months for visa, this would be October 16th. I realize I can extend current tourist visa by 30 days, with new exit date around October 29th. But I also understand that I need to apply for retirement visa with at least 15 days left on current visa extension. How does this work? Do I initially apply for retirement visa before money is in bank for 2 months? Thanks!
